A true Rosicrucian

Three animals has he tamed:
The lion, hence his patience;
The bear, hence his friendliness;
The snake of his lower nature and he is therefore free of all jealousy. Three virtues has he acquired:

Faith in what he knows and trust in the promise of the King;
A strong Hope based on his knowledge of the Law as well as his acknow- ledgement of the good in everything;
As well as Love towards the Justice in all that happens and thus it is that he never judges the shortcomings of others or falls victim to garrulousness.

He will never boast because he knows he is an instrument of God
He knows how to be silent because he is obedient to his inner King. Striving to fulfill his duty and thus reflecting his inner journey of the soul outwardly, there is no disarray in his life.

Inclined to form a high opinion of others, he will seek the good in all and everything.
He will never think badly of others, knowing that every circumstance is an opportunity for inner growth,.

Tranquil within himself he will not impose himself on others. He spurns vanity.
He is more concerned for the wellbeing of others than for his own.
He pursues no personal advantage and is thus free of ambition.

His faith is based on an acknowledgement of the inner truth and thus he can not be deceived by delusions of the dialectical world. It makes him free of irritability.
Sorrow cannot overwhelm him because resistance builds strength.
He will forever remain connected with the group of those that live the truth.
